About Michaelson House Hotel

Rooms at Michaelson House Hotel are simple and comfortable, each with its own en-suite bathroom and the option of drinks brought straight to your door. Family rooms are available for those travelling with children, and every stay includes free WiFi, so you can settle in without fuss after a day out in Cumbria.

The hotel occupies two attached Victorian houses on Fairfield Lane in Barrow-in-Furness, giving it a period character that sets it apart from more generic chain hotels. Downstairs there is a restaurant serving international dishes, a bar, and a garden with outdoor seating for warmer days. Breakfast is included and packed lunches can be arranged for guests heading out to explore, while meeting rooms and 24-hour reception cover more practical needs.

Free on-site parking makes arriving by car straightforward, and the surrounding area offers plenty to fill the day, from golf and fishing to cycling and walking routes, with watersports, pubs, bars and restaurants also nearby. It is a classic, no-frills base for getting out into Cumbria rather than a destination in itself.

Wow what a lovely weekend. Peter and his mother Doreen are truly brilliant hosts. Peter has a wealth of historic information and will advise you on the best places to see and go and he did not disappoint. Our room was attended to daily and the finishing touches were second to none.. ,Mini Easter eggs on the breakfast table on Easter Sunday! They are all about their customers...don't understand the negative reviews the best holiday my husband and I have had in a long time. Well done Peter keep doing what you are doing!

I had a wonderful 2 night stay in the Michaelson when visiting the Lake District. It’s like stepping back in time to a cute little bed and breakfast. Peter was very welcoming and gave us lots of information about the area, and breakfast every morning was wonderful!

This building has the potential of becoming a 4 star hotel. The Gardens are beautiful and could be used for a outdoor wedding venue during the pandemic. The bar and restaurant area has kept its original features with log fires and a cozy feel. If I lived locally I would choose this as a venue for any celebration.
